No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Fruit: dehydrate, freeze, or alcoholic fermentantion. Some fruit have special methods, like sulphured apples or bletted medlars.
Vegetables: easiest thing is to pack in brine of 3Tbl per Qt, leave at room temperature or a little cooler for a week before eating. I alway throw in some onion and garlic because I like it that way. Lasts like 6 months at room temperature. Most vegetables have additional special traditional preservation methods, but that fermented pickle in brine works for pretty much all of them.
If you want to be more specific with which foods you need to preserve, I can provide more options.
I'm writing a book on food preservation, ama.
I always go for garlic, chili, corriander seed & onion seed in the brine, that makes even the blandest veggies tasty as
Ah, a fellow connoisseur I see. Do you add enough chili to make them spicy?
Have you tried onion, garlic, fenugreek, coriander, chili? I did a duck and a rattlesnake that way this summer and they were both indescribably delicious on crackers.
Bletted Medlars sounds like a Gaelic insult. Or a band name.
Bletted … wut?
That sounds like something my bro would do…. To in-laws….(okay so his in-laws are awful? Even by the standards of in-laws (there also fairly meddlesome)

So bletted means over ripe? Interesting fruit! Thanks for the link.
I…. Uh…. Wonder if I can get a dwarf variety to go next to the dwarf Meyer…..
You can, yeah. They can be grafted to m series rootstocks.
Okay, so I can get 1 Tim Berners-Lee, but where do I get the other two?
You forgot about non-alcoholic fermentation.
Edit: wow, downvotes from some salty alcoholic dipshits.
dude the downvotes are because the entire vegetable section is about lactic acid fermentation, so your comment is just factually wrong
It's okay to be wrong... just maybe think about whether it's your own mistake before calling people alcoholic dipshits
